Having access to that massive built-in audience has certainly helped. I also think Elon's gross mishandling of Twitter has played a major role. People loved what that platform used to be and were yearning for a replacement. I use it daily, and while it's not as good as peak Twitter was, it's still far superior to what X currently has to offer.
My experience with Threads is that I only visit it when I click on the clickbait posts they put on Instagram. They are very good at that, and I have to imagine a lot of their visitors come in that way. It's still not as useful as Twitter used to be, you can't make lists and they're determined to make it difficult to read just the posters you choose to follow. It's like they could make it good but they choose not to.
I think their success mainly has to do with how Threads put more of its focus on its mobile app from day one. I believe they launched the mobile app even before the web app.
